Support Groups

Traumatic injuries affect both physical and psychosocial well-being. The Trauma Survivor’s Network Peer Support Groups provide a space to share experiences of injury recovery, offer mutual support, and enhance coping skills.

Benefits of Joining a Support Group for survivors of severe physical injury:

Share Understanding: Gain support and hope from those with similar experiences with injury.
Emotional Relief: Reduce anxiety, fear, and loneliness through shared discussions.
Reciprocal Support: Help others while receiving valuable insights.
Coping Skills: Learn strategies to enhance your life after injury.
Boosted Confidence: Regain self-confidence and a sense of control.
Friendship and Community: Develop supportive friendships within the group.
